From connection to willful disconnection: Air India’s new Wi-Fi feature receives mixed support from celebs

From connection to willful disconnection: Air India’s new Wi-Fi feature receives mixed support from celebs

Air India, from January 1 onwards, has introduced in-flight Wi-Fi services for passengers traveling on Airbus A350, Boeing 787-9, and select A321 neo aircraft. While a few celebrities have appreciated this move and shared that it will enhance the overall travel experience, some shared that a little bit of disconnection from the world during travel won’t harm anyone.

Here’s what they had to say:

Aditya Deshmukh:
I believe everyone has their own perspective. Air India’s new Wi-Fi service on flights is a great improvement. It can be really useful in emergencies, allowing passengers to send important messages and stay informed. While people often use flights to relax or watch movies, I think adding Wi-Fi is a positive step forward, even if it’s not always perfect. I believe all airlines will offer this in the future, but if Wi-Fi leads to higher fares, the price should reflect the added convenience. Overall, progress should be embraced. Passengers who need to use the internet can, and those who want to rest can relax. If it’s a step forward, it shouldn’t be stopped. That’s my viewpoint.

Hansa Singh:
Connectivity everywhere is brilliant with desecration. It’s time for humans to be more evolved. That’s my take. Honestly, for me, those two hours of my time among the clouds are the best. Disconnect the world as I am in conversation with the best. The disconnection also gives time to connect with your co-passenger. I have had some very interesting conversations on flights. So like I said, it’s to each his own, but I would like to disconnect while in the sky.

Aadesh Chaudhary:
I think offering Wi-Fi during flights is a great feature. In today's digital age, staying connected is crucial for many passengers, especially business travelers. However, I also believe that being disconnected from the internet during flights has its advantages. It provides a rare opportunity to disconnect, relax, and recharge. Personally, I think this time is perfect for catching up with family members or friends who are traveling with me. It's a great chance to bond and create memories without distractions. That being said, having Wi-Fi on board can be beneficial for passengers who need to stay productive or entertained during long-haul flights. So, I think offering Wi-Fi is a good thing, but it's also essential to maintain a balance between staying connected and enjoying the journey.

Kavitta Verma:
It's a welcome move if Wi-Fi is available in the air. I understand that people think about some of the time in the air to themselves, but I feel it's a cool thing as we are connected to loved ones always. I don't think there is anything to hide from family, as they are your roots. And if one wants to disconnect, then simply switch it off. It shouldn't be an excuse; it should be willfully done. I welcome this upgrade.

Raviraa Bhardwaj:
Having Wi-Fi is a good feature because it helps people stay connected, especially during long flights. But it’s also nice to have the option to disconnect and relax. I think flight time is perfect to talk to family, reflect, or just enjoy some peaceful moments. We rarely get that kind of break from the internet. Having Wi-Fi is useful, especially for work or emergencies, but it’s up to us to use it wisely and not miss out on real-life connections or relaxation.
